1970 Norton 750cc Commando Fastback
Registration no. NTM 95H
Frame no. 135051
Engine no. 20M3S/135051

This 1970 Norton Commando Fastback is finished in green and black and has matching numbers. The machine was supplied to the current owner by GB Motorcycles of Chippenham, Wiltshire in 2001 and has been in his possession for more than 20 years. This machine has seen limited used but has been much enjoyed as part of a collection of over 100 motorcycles. It has proven to be extremely reliable in all respects with the exception of the original glassfibre fuel tank, which was damaged by ethanol in the fuel. Consequently, a new ethanol fuel-proof fuel tank has been manufactured and supplied (using the original one as the mould). This has completely solved the problem. Apart from the upgraded fuel tank, the Commando remains completely standard and has never been dismantled during the current ownership. It has been regularly serviced by the Norton-enthusiast owner; a Norton Owners' Club member, he owns a large collection of Nortons and still uses his prized 1959 Norton Dominator Model 99, which he has owned since 1962. The machine is offered with a V5C Registration Certificate, a current MoT and a good history file of old MoTs, etc.
